Subj: Re: Trill Question about Sonata #1, Teleman, 6-Canonic Sonatas
Date: Wed, 2 Apr 1997 22:01:21 -0500

Bar 11 B to C natural
Bar 32 A to B natural (use trill fingering RH. top side key)
Bar 33 F# to G (maybe you forgot the key signature?)

You trill to the next note in the key of the piece (the next note in the
scale, unless there is an accidental)
The version for "2 clarinets" you wrote about sounds like the original key,
with Clarinet written on the title page- no other changes were made. My
version is for 2 flutes, and starts on D. If your piece were truly written
for the Clarinet (transcribed) it would start on E.
